Mexico Tries Cloud Seeding

Yes, let's plant rocket engines all around the world to create clouds. What could possibly go wrong.

There is no connection. That is the weather in Albq. The high Sandia mtns on one side, the mesa on the other. It's a bowl. Smog in the winter doesn't escape.

Hell, pilots flying out of Albq hate takeoff because they need so much lift to get out of the bowl.

Nothing nefarious about it but too many cars, too many fireplaces in the winter.

The airport and the base fly alot of planes.... but it's not causing the smog that stays trapped in the bowl.

No, it's not the weather in Abq. It's from the planes. It's not smog.

If you actually pay attention, when it happens, the cloud cover "coincidentally" forms at the same altitude as the trails... within hours of the contrail appearing, as the contrail dissipates.

Y'all can deny it all you want, I don't care. You're wrong.

The location of ABQ is what's causing the contrails to sit at the level they were disbursed and then keeps the moisture from rising.

You're seeing that moisture spread, instead of rising. That's what causes the cloud cover.

So, in a sense, the contrails are causing the fog/clouds, but it's not necessarily nefarious.

At least, that's how I understand it.

For who ever think cloud seeding is not working just remember China Olympics ... they where using it to clear air quality for the world to see

That's because contrails are clouds. Clouds can linger so why can't contrails? Under the right conditions contrails will spread and turn into cloud cover.
